Another reason for using flash in bright sunlight!

Posted on May 28, 2010

CastleYoga-011
Emma Slade is a yoga instructor in Whitstable and we had half an hour to get some shots near to Whitstable Castle. In was nearly midday with the sun overhead and harsh or it was dodging behind the clouds. I’ve left in the gallery below what tends to happen with this – a blown out sky. By using two off camera flashes to add definition to Emma, we took control underexposing the background and then deciding where we wanted to pump in the light!

Corporate headshots at Canon UK’s headquarters

Posted on May 28, 2010

CanonHeadshots-001
Canon are based down in Reigate and I’ve been one of their preferred suppliers since 2003 covering a variety of corporate work including campaigns, events and some brochure illustrations. The images I took yesterday were some headshots. The weather kept changing from rain, overcast and then bright sunshine. Although I had a meeting room with studio lights set up just in case, I shot outside and in the reception area. The sun was harsh and pointing straight at the building – but placing the subject in a shade and controlling the light with off-camera flash created the look I was after.

Last ever RAF Nimrod flight – crews say emotional farewell to the “Mighty Hunter”

Posted on May 26, 2010

Ok, an odd one today but I was asked to photograph the last ever flight of an RAF Nimrod. The final flight today (Wednesday 26th May 2010) was from the base at RAF Kinloss in Scotland before landing at Manston, Kent’s international airport. At the controls were Squadron Leader Stuart “Roxy” Roxburgh aided by his crew. There was restricted access on proximity to the aircraft and even though I would have wanted to put speedlights all over the place, I could not do that today!

Corporate Headshots – Recruitment Genius

Posted on May 26, 2010

Geoff Newman at Recruitment Genius in Sevenoaks called me for some headshots – and so I booked a room as a dry weather base at the Riverside Business Centre and shot the bulk of the pictures outside. The idea was to create a variety of images for different press releases. The weather was dull and so I had to use off-camera flash to create some definition! If you’re thinking it’s time for some new corporate pictures or staff headshots please do get in touch and look at www.timstubbings.co.uk

Food & Restaurant photography – Samphire, Whitstable, Kent

Posted on May 4, 2010

Samphire-043
I’ve been getting quite a few commissions recently for restaurants wanting a style of photography that they have seen in the weekend magazine supplements, similar to shots I had published in BBC’s Olive magazine – natural, simple styling and shots of the interior of the restaurant. Samphire sits prettily amongst the quirky shops, bars and restaurants on Whitstable’s bustling High Street. The decor is inviting and relaxed which when combined with the bare floorboards and old tables and chairs give a welcoming boho-chic vibe to the place. That’s the owner George Lister in the main picture. Samphire, 4 High Street Whitstable CT5 1BQ 01227 770 075
